Feel free to discuss anything about any of the thousands of Transformer toys here. Anything from Generation 1 all the way to the soon to be released, the never to be released or the hope to be released is fair game! Want to show off your stuff? Please post your's and see others in the Transformers Collections Forum.

It appears Transformers Prime Cyberverse Commander Optimus Prime will be receiving the spiky Beast Hunters makeover. UK fansite Full Metal Hero have revealed a small render of the figure in robot mode. Check out the image mirrored below.

I've been wanting a CV scale Prime Prime, and I hope this might finally be able to convince me to pick one up. The original mold just never did anything for me...it just doesn't have anything that makes it pop.

I like the bulkier look. It reminds me of Powermaster Optimus Prime. The only detail that I'm not sure of is the bladed/spiked bits on the front of the torso. It may look better in alt mode if they serve as a cow catcher/pilot.

..Why would you think that? Legends class figures have always been pretty good, they're just scaled down versions of characters. And the Cyberverse line's entire point is to have all of the characters be at least roughly in scale with one another. (Notable exception is of course Breakdown)It's a bit of an insult and level of detail to the engineering on most of them to call them "happy meal toys"

He's talking about the canonicity of the Cyberverse toy designs, talking from a fictional standpoint, not a toy standpoint.

Ahh, my mistake. He's asking about them like...Spy Changers, for example? Nah, it's nothing like that. They're just like the Legends class figures that they've been doing since Cybertron/Galaxy Force. Just scaled down versions of characters that'll fit in your pocket or around your computer monitor.
